KEEP OF KALESSIN's Reptilian Enters Norwegian Charts At #2
May 19, 2010, 14 years ago
Norwegian epic extreme metallers KEEP OF KALESSIN have entered the Norwegian charts at #2 with their new album, Reptilian.
Commented mainman Obsidian Claw: “We're very happy with the #2 position on the Norwegian charts and especially the fact that no other metal band in Norway, except DIMMU BORGIR, has had a better position than this. It is always great to be appreciated in your home country and it gives the band a solid ground to build from throughout Europe and US.”
Reptilian is scheduled for release in North America on June 8th. The tracklist is as follows:
‘Dragon Iconography’
‘The Awakening’
‘Judgement’
‘The Dragontower’
‘Leaving The Mortal Flesh’
‘Dark As Moonless Night’
‘The Divine Land’
‘Reptilian Majesty’
Reptilian is the follow-up to Keep Of Kalessin’s 2008 release, Kolossus and was recorded once again at their own studio in Trondheim, Norway. Mixing duties were handled by Daniel Bergstrand (MESHUGGAH, BEHEMOTH, IN FLAMES).
Keep of Kalessin will join label mates NILE on the 21-date Those Whom The Gods Detest Tour II through the United States beginning October 31st in Raleigh, North Carolina. Also on the bill are Roman-themed arsenal EX DEO, Tazmanian tech-death masters PSYCROPTIC, and brutal death grinders PATHOLOGY.
